I'm Welcome, everybody, to the first ever

0:31.2

RacerX Canada podcast show.

0:33.3

I'm your host Steve Mathis, and hopefully I'll be doing this all year.

0:36.5

You probably don't even realize it, but you're all a part of history.

0:39.1

You'll forever be able to tell your grandkids where you were when you first heard the RacerX Canada podcast show.

0:45.9

Or I won't be able to get anyone to actually call me back, and this show will only last two weeks.
